genitor 0 #1 May 4, 2005 I was wondering how many people out there are jumping a Mirage G4 with the Fancy Pants option. Do you like it? Does it really eliminate the problem with your leg straps sliding down your legs? How does it compare to the bungee-between-straps option that is more standard (I find that the leg straps on my rig STILL have a tendency to slide down somewhat even with the bungee).

upndownshop 0 #2 May 4, 2005 When I jumped mirage I thought they were great. People gave me a hard time about em, but I didnt care. They are really nice compared to the bungie, especially when some one decides to "snap" it, the fancy pants dont hurt like the bungie. Over all they were fine. Didnt care for the lateral support, not that affective, compared to "cut in" laterals. Blue skies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GravityGirl 0 #3 May 4, 2005 I still jump them. I recommend pulling them tight and then securing that position with a small supertac stitch. Otherwise then tend to slip after a couple hundred jumps. I just hate having to adjust one more thing on each jump. You really dont want them loose. They'll spank you in the butt and it's really not okay to have stuff flapping by your deployment system. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
